Sorry I was with you, but I take issue with the work an extra hour to meet a deadline. I did that just this week even.
We have a deadline, we had time for us allto get it done, but one member was doing things his own pace. That's okay, but he needs it done by this date. I start checking in more and more regularly, he says it's fine and he'll get it done. Well it is Friday and it's due Monday, and he says that he guessed it was harder than it was, and he didn't have crucial component done. To which I said I'm sorry to do this, but it's due Monday, let me know how I can help but sounds like you'll need to work over the weekend.
I'm huge on work life balance, but if you're slacking at work and dragging down everyone else, damn right I'll ask you to work late. I'm not a manager so I can't do reviews, but as a lead it is my job to make sure things get done on time, and if I don't push one person, the the whole team is at risk when layoff season comes around
